This was one of my favorite books as a kid. This is the greatest bedtime book I have found for when the kids are around. I recently re-discovered it on my book shelf when my friends' kids were staying with me. The four year old loves to point out all the many details of the pictures and, of course, Harry that "silly" dog that gets too dirty. Its story line is gentle enough that it doesn't get them wound up, in fact when were are finsihed reading they drift off to sleep happily dreaming about the "white dog with black spots" that turns into a "black dog with white spots". A must have for every children's collection.
I will be buying more copies for other children. It's a cute, just the right length, amusing story.
old girl who loves dogs. I purchased this book based on the reviews, for a 3 yr.
My 5 year old also enjoyed it and wants her own copy. Turns out, not only does she love this book, but her 18 month old brother demands it be read to him.
It's their favorite book and is read to them every evening. I liked the part where Harry went through the coal mine, living in PA we can identify.
I love a good book.
This is the first of the Harry series, of which we have three. All of those books are consistently good quality, rather similar (Harry gets into trouble, there are misunderstandings, everybody gets along fine in the end). This one is very appealing and our boy asked for it many many times, until finally (after a few dozen readings over a period of many months, ages 1-2) he got a little bored with it. Highly recommended, one of our favorites.
We came across the Harry books at our library and my daughter (2) loved them so much that I purchased them for her. They are so much fun to read.
He hates them so much that he buries his brush and (temporarily) runs away from home. I loved this book as a child and now my 2 year old loves it too. This book tells the story of Harry, who hates baths. He plays and gets so dirty that his family thinks he is a different dog entirely. The story is sweet and simple enough for my 2 year old to enjoy, but not so simple that it's boring or babyish.
